A Fearful Fall.

At the Mercer County, Missouri, Fair
Wednesday afternoon Randall Blakes-
lee, half-breed Indian, made balloon
ascension, hanging to a trapezo bar.
In the ascent the balloon shot up sud-
denly, giving BlakesIee severe wrench,
and he was unable to pull himself on
the bar, but managed to hold himself
up by a loop which he had drawn
around his wrist. After travelling about
q mile and a-half, reaching an altitude
of 1900 feet, the balloon began to de-
scend, but the poor fellows strength
gave out, and when within 500 feet of
the earth his grasp relaxed and he fell
to the earth, lighting on his feet. His
thighs were broken and driven into the
trunk Of his body.

COUNTY OFFICIAL PAPER.
THE FISHERY DISPUTE.

There is fair prospect that the fish
cry dispute will come to an amicab lie
eni before next season. The English
government has taken hold Of the
question boldly. Joseph Chamberlain
has been appointed to head q commits
sion to arrange satisfactory terms with
this country. The President will prob
ably appoint an American commission
to meet the English one. The scheme
has been pet idea of the adninistra-
ton ever since the trouble began, and
the refusal of the Senate to ratify an
arrangement providing for a reference
of the dispute to a mixed commission
grievsd Secretary Bayard more than a
ruiSta1e in engraving the invitations to
state dinner. The President, of
course, cannot appoint representatives
with full powers, but he can constitute
a body to investigate and consult. This
will be worth doing. It will be a good
thing to negotiate directly with princi-
pals. Canada has prudently retired
behind England's skirts whenever an
attempt has been made to bring her to
account, and all complaints addressed to
England have been automatically re-
ferred to the Canadian Ministers.
The American negotiators should be
able and experienced men. No small
politician should be sent to meet JOS
eph Chamberlain if we expect 10 come
out of the negotiations with Credits.

Idaho Mines.

One years work on the Tip Top
mine with eight men has developed a
magnificent property. There is shaft
125 feet in depth and q tunnel $50 feet
in length, with crosscuts, all in ore.
by actual measurement there is in sight
over 100000 worth of ore, and yet
this is the beginning. In another year
the railroad will be built from HALEY to
the Gold Belt, and the citizens of our
enterprising town will rejoice in the
music of a 200-stamp mill. Hold fast,
boys, All things come to those who

Uses of Salt.

Some uses of salt are mentioned in q
current magazine. Salt dissolved in
cold water will relieve dyspepsia; mix
with lemon juice will remove stains
from the hands; will kill weeds in the
grass; when sprinkled at the bottoms
and at the tops Of garden walls, it is
said that salt will keep snails from
climbing up and down; it is better than
water to extinguish fire in chimney
or Aue, it should be added to the
water in which all vegetables are
cooked.

Mrs. Genevieve A. COwles our candi-
date for Register of Deeds is lady
well qualified in every respect to dis
charge the duties of the Office. Thrown
upon the world through force of cir
cumstances, at the age of 16 she pro-
cured copying and writing in different
offices and was for several months en-
ploycd in the office of Register of
Deeds and thoroughly understands the
business of the office. If elected she
will conduct the Office in the same ad-
mirable manner that it has been con-
Quoted in the last four years. She is a
woman, it is true: so is your mother,
wife, sister and daughter. 1t has been
said it is undemocratic for Democrats
to nominate women for Office. and that
we have followed the Republicans. who
nominated Miss Junken four years
ago, but that is not true-We lead. The
Democratic state convention of Kan
sas nominated woman for the office
of State Superintendent of Public
Schools seven years age. The Demo
Gratis of this county nominated a wOm-
an for Superintendent of Schools nine
years ago. But the lead or follow bus
mess ought not to cut any figure. Mrs.
Cowles is lady every way worthy and
competent for the office.

Henry Hoffman, the Democratic
candidate for County clerk, is an hon
est, upright, intelligent young man,
fully competent to discharge the duties
of the Office. Mr.. Hoffman has been
represented by some as a mere boy, but
the REFLECTOR ventures the assertion
and knows that he is the same age a
certain young man was ten years ago,
that was elected sheriff of this county.
And the boy racket was used then with
a vengeance but the boy was elected,
and the duties pertaining to the Office
were administered all o. K. Mr..
Hoffman is a resident of jefferson
township and was born in this coun-
try, but comes from sterling Swiss
stock, a race who loved their William
Tell as we love and venerate our
Washington. He has been boOkkeeper
10 two different banks in this county,
and at present is bookkeeper for the ].
3. Ersham Machine Co., at Enterprise.
1t is but recognizing the large German
and Swiss element in this county. and
it is due them to elect to office one that
speaks the tongue of the Fatherland, and
one whom they all honor and respect.
Mr.. Hoffman is honest, competent and
worthy, and should receive the hearty
support of the voters of this county.

How Mrs. Longshore Potts Impressed
Our British Brethren.

Mrs. Anna Longshore- Potts, NJ. D.,
who is to begin a series of lectures at
Chickering Hall Tuesday evening next,
is distinguished physician and native
OF Philadelphia, where she graduated
from the Woman's Medical College in
1852, She has won great distinction
abroad as a lecturer. The London
Truth thus speaks of her: 1.-The
American lady doctor thoroughly un-
derstands her subject, and is not one of
the masculine, loud-voiced women. y
Mrs. Potts has a benevolent,
kindly face, as BELTS the exponent Of a
benehcent science. Her voice
is gently persuasive, and quiet humor
lights up her discourse from time to
time. The utility of such
lectures is incontrovertible. IS .
After hearing one lecture only from DR..
Potts. her women hearers come away
With sense Of not merely enlighten-
ment, but positive illumination, as to
the wonderful science of medicine.
The more Englishwomen who attend
her lectures the better it will be for our
nurseries, and the fewer doctors bills
shall we have to pay."-Star.
DR.. Potts will be remembered BY
many Abilene people, who attended
her lectures in the old court room, sew
eral years ago.

There is no Office in the county
wherein it behooves the citizens to
place as careful level headed honest
men, as in the Office of county COM
missioner. The county treasurer only
pays out such money as the laws of the
state and the commissioners order
him. He has no discretion in the
matter; and so it is with all other
county officers. But the board of
Commissioners can spend thousands
annually in an extravagant manner, or,
Oh the other hand, if they are level
headed and discreet, they can save
thousands for the county. Henry
Kandt has proven himself careful,
honest and fearless member of the
board, still many of the politicians who
are making such a clamor that
olher candidates must be
elected for the second term, but the
man who really assists in carrying the
county's veal or woe in his hand must
be downed. Mr.. Kandt, as chairman
of the county board for the last year,
has proven that business in that office
can be dispatched, not only econom-
icaly, but promptly.

At the New London, Conn, county
fair, John Troland, of Norwich, exhib-
tied the clock that licked for Lorenzo
Dow in his gambrel rooted house al
OxObOxo Lake. Elder Dow brought
the clock from England. 1t is more
than 100 years old. 1t is quaint aud
striking timepiece. There is simply a
prim dial plate, around which two long,
crooked fingers creep, with open air
works behind it, no case, and three or
four brass weights on cords dangle six
feet below the face. 1t was going dur
ing the fair, and attracted great dt al
of attention.-Chicago Herald.

Polygamy is threatened from new
source. This time it is the fashionable
bonnet that looms up as an enemy of
the divine institution. Heretofore sim
plicity in dress has characterized the
female saints, but lately they effect
the fashions of the gentiles, and deck
themselves out regardless. This new
departure will settle it. Congressional
enactments may fail, and the marshal's
posse prove vain thing; but one sea-
sons millinery bills will set ali the
apostles and deacOns in the territory to
rumaging around in search of a new
revelation. And they will find it, too.

James G. Flood, the bonanza prince
of the Pacific coast, is reported to be a
physical wreck and lying at the point
of death. Apparently his greediness
for money has accomplished his ruin.
Worth millions on millions he wanted
more and was willing to wreck the
fortunes Of others and produce wide
spread distress to secure it. 1t is very
certain that lie was one of the moving
spirits in the great wheat deal which
went to pieces in California from its
own weight a few weeks ago. The
shock of that disaster to him, though
he still had millions left, was too much
for his health and now he has broSen
down. Cases of this kind tend to make
editors more contented with their lot.

The REFLECTOR has treated all the
candidates upon the Republican ticket
in this county fairly and honestly, and
is pleased to know that the opposition
press have conducted the campaign in
the same clean and upright manner.
Let come what will the REFLECTOR
does not propose to use dirt and indulge
in mud singing against any of the
candidates upon the Republican ticket.
Some of the stories that have been
started on the outside against Henry
Harnish are very dirty and contempt
able. Mr.. Harnish is an honorable,
clean and upright man, worthy and
well qualified in every respect to faith
fully and intelligently perform the
duties of the Office of sheriff. He has
lived in this county for several years,
and during that time he has always
been recognized as an upright, indus
trious, honorable man. There is no
swell headed bragadocia about Henry
Harnish. If elected, he will be
the same quiet, respectable gentleman

Rear Admiral Worden, hero of the
Monitor and Merrimac fight, is living
in Washington. He is 20 years Of age,
but looks younger. He has full blond
beard, and his hair is not as white as
his age would warrant. The wound
he received at the Monitor and Merri-
mac battle not only impaired his sight,
but has left him always subject to Sc
we're headaches. He was retired from
the navy in 1888 on full pay, and is
thus in receipt of $6, J00 year.
